How many days til NaNoWriMo? 3.

So what usually happens to silly people who don’t remember to make backups of their novel preparations? THE COMPUTER BREAKS. yeah. You heard me. My computer won’t start - some problem with my hard drive, the hard drive with my beloved storyline spreadsheet on. God fucking help me, I’m screwed.

Is this a sign? A warning? Is this NaNo punishing me for being too prepared and using a storyline I’d already began working on?

Hopefully though, we can take my hard drive out and put it into my dad’s computer in attempt to retrieve some of my files. But I just know that the one folder I won’t be able to get back will be my NaNo folder, which, as well as having my spreadsheet in, had all my character building excercises and stuff in. All I’ve got left guaranteed is all the crap from past versions of the story which I could use that unfortunately has great big nooby holes in from where I hadn’t done enough plot thinking or character building.

Meh. I can remember roughly most of the plot, but it’s still nice to have something complete to work with. I was getting all excited at the fact that because I was fully prepared, I was actually going to finish this novel once and for all. If I fail NaNo these characters are gonna bug me for the rest of my life. Seriously, they’re annoying little buggers.

Help me? What I need is for someone to say they had a copy of everything on my hard disk that I can have. I mean, I may even have lost my music!!@!11@1!! Stressed. =[

Edit: IT’S FINE. We managed to get the drives into my dad’s computer and I went mad and saved everything I could onto his hard drive. I now has my stuff back. I’M SOO HAPPY. You shoulda seen me before; I was pacing the room, cursing everything, annoyed out of my mind. I even started screaming when Cedric Diggory died in Harry Potter (typical that I had to be reading that chapter, haha) I take things way too seriously. =P
